How to choose a tile and stone contractor.
What to ask before you hire, from Rocky.
Tile setters and stone masons for floors, showers, backsplashes and exteriors. Use this checklist when you compare tile & stone contractors, then ask Rocky if you want a second opinion.
- Ask which waterproofing system they use in showers.
- Ask how they plan the layout so cut tiles do not end up in plain view.
- Get at least two written quotes that list scope, materials, schedule and payment stages.
- Contractors who take money before the work is finished need an Alberta prepaid contracting licence. Ask for the number before you pay a deposit.
- Ask for a WCB Alberta clearance letter and proof of liability insurance.
- Read recent reviews and ask for references from jobs like yours.
